Nitish Kumar takes oath as Bihar CM
Several political leaders, including West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee and Assam CM Tarun Gogoi, attended Kumar's oath taking ceremony which was held in Patna's Raj Bhavan.
Earlier on Friday, he apologized to the people of Bihar for quitting the post of Chief Minister in the aftermath of the drubbing of his party in the Lok Sabha polls last year.
After Jitan Ram Manjhi resigned on Friday instead of proving his claims of support on the floor of the House, Nitish Kumar said: "I apologise for my mistake."
